Kraig Urbik started all 16 games at right guard in 2013, but is coming off a mediocre season and will face competition from Hairston and fifth-round pick Cyril Richardson. Hairston has impressed during OTAs, getting first-team reps at both guard and tackle. He missed last year on the NFI list, but has 15 games of starting experience. Fri, Jun 20, 2014 07:19:00 PM

Hairston remains the favorite for swing tackle duties, but could also be the top reserve at guard if Chris Williams or Kraig Urbik misses time. Fifth-round pick Cyril Richardson has struggled and may need a year to develop. Hairston spent last season on the NFI list, but has been a full participant at voluntary workouts.

Hairston spent all of 2013 on the reserve/non-football illness list with an undisclosed malady. A talented 25-year-old with 15 career starts, Hairston has lacked the durability required to become a reliable full-time starter, but should make for a quality swing tackle behind Cordy Glenn and Cyrus Kouandjio.

Hairston spent all of last season on the reserve/NFI list. He battled a foot/ankle injury at the end of the 2012 season and started last summer on PUP before missing most of camp. Right tackle is a weak spot on Buffalo's line. Hairston has great size at 6-foot-6 and 330 pounds but can't be counted on. Tue, Mar 25, 2014 09:16:00 AM
